crazy tuesday night and more was added to the "to be assessed" pile that already includes new thinking and attitude involving my other and our upcoming plans that are very close to being (or have already been?) set in stone - plans that larkin and i had a long talk about last night and perhaps that situation requires no assessment - just waiting and fantasizing, but work needs to be assessed, what with the closing of the company and the checks that came and that are coming in as well as my joining small pond on the leapfrog project which has all worked out wonderfully financially and will be much better, not only for my career, but for that one non-existant word that means "love for ones work" and actually come to think of it, work doesn't need any assessment; it ended, its sad, some of them sucked and some are friends for life, maybe i'll get an extra check or two, maybe i won't, and unlike so many, i've already got another job - and a whole lot more of a job too - nope, that's all good, so perhaps tuesday and drama and big dreams and big plans and my part in them (the key there, oh yeah) has come into clearer focus - which also requires very little thought, and much like i mentioned about being on a certain road, that is indeed and still the case - but roads converge just as they diverge and perhaps we're all on the same road and even in the same car - so maybe because its such a long trip and i've seen so much and have navigated and even driven some of the way - perhaps i need to do what i was doing in the first place that allowed for all of this which is crawling back in the back and looking up through the window at the power lines that bob up and down as we roll along.

on the deck: heard squarpusher's little red car (gotta look for it) and now digging stereolab's mars audiac quintet.
